The Chicago Packing COmpany's Great Works
Go Up in Smoke
CHICAGO, June ga million and a
quarter dollars went up In smoke at the
Union Stock Yards to-day. Early this
morning one of the employees of the Chi
cagO Packing and Provision company dis
covered fire in the tank room. In few
moments ono of the tanks exploded, scat
tering burning LARD over the adjacent
buildings, and dozen separate fires Were
soon competing with each other in the de-
struction of the immense establishment.
Though the fire was struck out this even
ing, fourteen and half hours after it
started, the smouldering embers con-
tinued to laden the air with the fumes of
roast pork, and a fveacre oven will re-

The Editor Was Diving.


The owner of a paper lay dying in his
lair, and the dew of death had gathered
on his brow so calm and fair; but a
printer knelt beside him, as his life
ebbed away, and asked the dying writer
if he had word to say. The doomed
man murmured softly as he grabbed the
printers fist: ''Well, last the struggles
over, and, never will be missed; take a
message and token to that city man of
